Progressive Design Build - 26,000 SF hangar at Lakehurst on Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst (JBMDL).

DEPT OF DEFENSE

Description

<p>The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), New York District, has a requirement for the design and construction of a new roughly 26,000 SF hangar at Lakehurst on Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst (JBMDL).</p>

<p></p>

<p>The project is anticipated to provide a permanent, secure, and efficiently configured Naval Secure Test and Research (NavSTAR) hangar to support aircraft compatibility testing at the Lakehurst</p>

<p>test site on JBMDL. The Government is seeking industry feedback regarding the most effective means to plan, design, procure, construct, commission, and transition the new hangar.</p>

<p></p>

<p><strong>1. NavSTAR Hangar Facility and Utility Systems</strong></p>

<ul>
<li><strong>New Hangar Facility:</strong>

<ul>
<li>Construct a new permanent 25,172 SF footprint steel-frame hangar facility west of Bldg. 685 to support simultaneous 1-in/1-out fixed-wing carrier aircraft compatibility testing.</li>
<li>Space includes several secure rooms that must be designed, built, and certified to the current ICD 705 standards with all appropriate secure network connections.</li>
<li>Include a fully climate-controlled maintenance and testing bay, maintenance workshop, two (2) logistics warehouses, a payloads storage room, a security office, and dedicated support space for personnel.</li>
<li>Ensure the facility incorporates high-performance and sustainable building design features maximizing energy efficiency in accordance with DoD Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC), federal laws, and Executive Orders to meet or exceed useful service life.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Primary Power and Electrical Distribution:</strong>
<ul>
<li>Provide a new 750 kW standby generator to supply emergency/backup power to the hangar facility and its secure testing operations.</li>
<li>Provide complete primary and secondary electrical distribution systems, including transformers, apron lighting, and exterior security lighting.</li>
<li>Integrate telecommunications infrastructure and secure communications lines directly with the existing installation network.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Climate Control, Mechanical, and Fire Systems:</strong>
<ul>
<li>Provide a fully climate-controlled HVAC system tailored for the maintenance/testing bay and personnel support areas, including dedicated environmental controls for secure operational zones.</li>
<li>Provide potable water lines, sanitary sewer lines, natural gas piping, and a dedicated fire suppression system.</li>
<li>Ensure all mechanical systems utilize life-cycle cost-effective, high-efficiency systems engineered for long-term utility-support operations.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Commissioning, OMSI, and Post-Award Support:</strong>
<ul>
<li>Provide complete system commissioning, cybersecurity feature testing, and operational validation.</li>
<li>Develop and deliver Operations and Maintenance Support Information (OMSI) technical manuals to the Government.</li>
<li>Provide Post Construction Award Services (PCAS) to support transition-to-operations.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>

<p></p>

<p><strong>2. Civil, Structural, and Site Infrastructure</strong></p>

<ul>
<li><strong>Site Preparation, Grading, and Drainage:</strong>

<ul>
<li>Perform site clearing, excavation, and site preparation, including the possibility of 10,000 CY of bulk cut/fill earthwork.</li>
<li>Implement a comprehensive storm water management facility incorporating Low Impact Development (LID) design elements to control runoff and protect local ecosystems.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Foundations and Structural Systems:</strong>
<ul>
<li>Construct a structural steel-frame building super-structure utilizing a built-up roofing assembly.</li>
<li>Provide a spread footing reinforced concrete foundation engineered to mitigate local soil bearing and settlement risks.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Paving and Site Access Improvements:</strong>
<ul>
<li>Construct a dedicated fixed-wing taxiway to connect the hangar with the adjacent catapult system on the test runway.</li>
<li>Construct a rotary-wing parking apron, a hangar access apron, and organizational vehicle parking.</li>
<li>Construct dedicated concrete and asphalt access roads, including curbs, grading, and sidewalks, connecting the facility directly to the existing base road network via Deweese Road and E. Clubhouse Lake Road.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>

<p></p>

<p><strong>3. Utility Connections, Interfaces, and Cutover Work</strong></p>

<ul>
<li><strong>Existing Utility Interfaces:</strong>

<ul>
<li>Connect the new facility to existing base potable water, sanitary sewer, natural gas, electrical, telecommunications, and storm water drainage networks.</li>
<li>Confirm existing-system capacities, tie-in locations, and coordinate necessary utility outage windows with base public works.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Operational Continuity &amp; Interface Management:</strong>
<ul>
<li>Coordinate all tie-in actions directly adjacent to the existing active catapult system on the test runway to ensure zero unplanned disruptions to active aircraft compatibility testing.</li>
<li>Coordinate utility cutovers and final energization sequences with JBMDL installation operations to maintain continuous mission capabilities.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>

<p></p>

<p><strong>4. Security, Cybersecurity, and Site Safeguards</strong></p>

<ul>
<li><strong>Physical Security and Site Access:</strong>

<ul>
<li>Provide dedicated physical security features in accordance with Geographic Combatant Commander policies and Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) for DoD Minimum Antiterrorism Standards for Buildings.</li>
<li>Construct roughly 650 LF of 8-foot industrial chain-link perimeter security fencing to establish a secure boundary.</li>
<li>Install two (2) overhead vehicle slide gates to provide strictly controlled physical access to the secure aircraft operational apron and hangar apron areas.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Cybersecurity and Secure Information Exchange:</strong>
<ul>
<li>Provide robust cybersecurity features for all Facility-Related Control Systems (FRCS) in accordance with current DoD criteria.</li>
<li>Ensure secure communications infrastructure and information systems are fully commissioned, with all technical compliance costs fully integrated under the early-stage conservative risk posture.</li>
<li>Securely handle and store all project data, design files, and specifications in accordance with federal laws and regulations governing Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>

<p></p>

<p><strong>Estimated Acquisition Magnitude:</strong></p>
